I took a trip to Pawtuckaway State park this past Monday to wrestle some rocks and take photos. I became interested in the compositional possibilities of rock as "figure" and sky/trees as "ground." I also took some pictures where the rock fills the entire frame, and the focus of the image is the texture and features of the rock. I like the flatness of these photos in particular. I'm thinking that my typology project will be comprised of a set of four photos, now i just have to choose, edit, and print!
Having left class early on the day we shot portraits for the amalgamation project, I was worried that I would be unable to complete this project. However, I was saved by David's kind offer to come in on Saturday and show me how to use photoshop to layer all these beautiful faces together. I succeeded in making one amalgamation of the more serious photos we took, and now that I know the basic process I will also work on making one with the silly photos featuring our wee canine friend. This is the first amalgamation that I put together with David's help. We couldn't figure out how to make the background more even, but otherwise it's working okay.
